Abstract Details

2018, MARCH, University of Cincinnati, Design, Architecture, Art and Planning: Architecture.
Like many other Midwest rust belt cities, Cincinnati was born as a center of industry for a rapidly industrializing United States.Throughout the late 1800s and well into the 1900s, large industrial facilities emerged on the periphery of city centers.These building typologies became a prevalent layer in the history and building stock of these industrial cities. As the focus of the American economy slowly shifted from industrial production to service, significant amounts of those industrial properties dating from the industrial past, were left vacant and in disrepair or were often condemned and then demolished. Rich with memory of their city’s booming industrial past, these oversized engines of American’s will, now appear as scars in the urban fabric symbolizing the city’s economic shift. In removing these historic icons, cities create gaps in their historical continuum. These gaps are now filled with constructs that are placeless and discontinuous with the memory of what was once there.
